Audio Bible Context Assyrian Invasion Prophesied…4For before the boy knows how to cry ‘Father’ or ‘Mother,’ the wealth of Damascus and the plunder of Samaria will be carried off by the king of Assyria.” 5And the LORD spoke to me further: 6“Because this people has rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloah and rejoiced in Rezin and the son of Remaliah,… Cross References Isaiah 7:17-20 The LORD will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since the day Ephraim separated from Judah—He will bring the king of Assyria.” / On that day the LORD will whistle to the flies at the farthest streams of the Nile and to the bees in the land of Assyria. / And they will all come and settle in the steep ravines and clefts of the rocks, in all the thornbushes and watering holes. ... Isaiah 9:1-2 Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those in distress. In the past He humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future He will honor the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations: / The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned. 2 Kings 17:5-6 Then the king of Assyria invaded the whole land, marched up to Samaria, and besieged it for three years. / In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and carried away the Israelites to Assyria, where he settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the Medes. 2 Kings 18:9-12 In the fourth year of Hezekiah’s reign, which was the seventh year of the reign of Hoshea son of Elah over Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria marched against Samaria and besieged it. / And at the end of three years, the Assyrians captured it. So Samaria was captured in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel. / The king of Assyria exiled the Israelites to Assyria and settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the Medes. ... 2 Chronicles 28:19-21 For the LORD humbled Judah because Ahaz king of Israel had thrown off restraint in Judah and had been most unfaithful to the LORD. / Then Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came to Ahaz but afflicted him rather than strengthening him. / Although Ahaz had taken a portion from the house of the LORD, from the royal palace, and from the princes and had presented it to the king of Assyria, it did not help him. Hosea 5:13-14 When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah his wound, then Ephraim turned to Assyria and sent to the great king. But he cannot cure you or heal your wound. / For I am like a lion to Ephraim and like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear them to pieces and then go away. I will carry them off where no one can rescue them. Hosea 10:6-7 Yes, it will be carried to Assyria as tribute to the great king. Ephraim will be seized with shame; Israel will be ashamed of its wooden idols. / Samaria will be carried off with her king like a twig on the surface of the water. Micah 1:9 For her wound is incurable; it has reached even Judah; it has approached the gate of my people, as far as Jerusalem itself. Jeremiah 2:18 Now what will you gain on your way to Egypt to drink the waters of the Nile? What will you gain on your way to Assyria to drink the waters of the Euphrates? Jeremiah 46:7-8 Who is this, rising like the Nile, like rivers whose waters churn? / Egypt rises like the Nile, and its waters churn like rivers, boasting, ‘I will rise and cover the earth; I will destroy the cities and their people.’ Matthew 4:15-16 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles— / the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.” Matthew 24:15-16 So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand), / then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Luke 1:79 to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.” John 8:12 Once again, Jesus spoke to the people and said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.” Acts 26:18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those sanctified by faith in Me.’ Treasury of Scripture The LORD spoke also to me again, saying, A. Isaiah 7:10 Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying, Jump to Previous Addeth Further SpeakJump to Next Addeth Further SpeakIsaiah 8 1. In Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz, he prophesies Syria and Israel shall be subdued by Assyria5. Judah likewise for their infidelity 9. God's judgments shall be irresistible 11. Comfort shall be to those who fear God 19. Great afflictions to idolaters And the LORD spoke to me further: This phrase indicates a continuation of divine communication with the prophet Isaiah. The LORD, Yahweh, is the covenant name of God, emphasizing His relationship with Israel. The phrase "spoke to me" underscores the personal nature of prophetic revelation, where God directly communicates His will and message to His chosen prophets. This further communication suggests an ongoing dialogue, highlighting the importance of the message that follows. In the context of Isaiah, this is part of a series of prophecies concerning the political and spiritual state of Judah and its neighbors. The use of "further" implies that this is an addition to previous revelations, which in the context of Isaiah 7 and 8, includes the prophecy of Immanuel and the impending Assyrian threat. This ongoing revelation is consistent with the role of prophets in the Old Testament, who were often given messages over time to guide, warn, and instruct the people of Israel.

Teaching Points God's CommunicationGod actively communicates with His people, often through chosen individuals like prophets. We should be attentive to His voice through Scripture and prayer. Prophetic Context Understanding the historical and cultural context of prophetic messages helps us grasp their significance and application for today. Divine Sovereignty God's control over nations and history is evident in His use of empires like Assyria to accomplish His purposes. Trust in His sovereignty even amidst global uncertainties. Faithfulness in Uncertainty Isaiah's role as a prophet required faithfulness despite challenging circumstances. We are called to remain faithful to God's calling in our lives, regardless of external pressures. Hope in God's Promises The prophecies of Isaiah, including the promise of Immanuel, remind us of the hope we have in God's promises, ultimately fulfilled in Christ.Verses 5-10. - THE FLOOD OF ASSYRIAN INVASION WILL PASS FROM SYRIA AND SAMARIA INTO JUDAEA, BUT WILL THERE BE ARRESTED. Syria and Samaria were barriers, breakwaters, so placed as to stem the tide of invasion, and be a defense to Judaea against Assyrian attack. When once they were overwhelmed, the waters would have free course, and the submersion of Judaea was certain. It might be delayed by the Divine favor, and would be, so long as the people, or even a remnant of them, remained faithful, but only through the might of the name Immanuel, "God with us."
